WoT and video games in the near future?

Dakiras:   ^ Anyone with the slightest interest in the games industry (not just playing games, but further into the industry) needs to have EC in their lives. I've watched the series since very early on, and it's invaluable data. James Portnow is the Neo of the current gaming industry, and is actually willing to share his knowledge - unlike many of the industry professionals that offer consultancy to larger corporations - for free.   Seriously... he's Neo. Looks just like Keanu Reeves...   As for where the industry is headed... who knows? Something might come along to change the face of gaming. Who'd have thought that Wii Fit would sell a million units in the first month alone? Who would have figured that a game where you click on vegetable patches in a really simple Facebook game would be one of the biggest social games of all time? Whodathunk Flappy Bird would ever have been a thing?   We're surprised constantly with the games industry. Predicting its future isn't quite so easy, but the trends are definitely forming. Monthly subscription models are now a thing of the past and you will generally wince when a new title is released as subscription-based... and count the time before it goes free-to-play, early-alpha funded games are commonplace, kickstarter came and went (mostly), and the free to play model is being adopt by everyone since it's currently the best model for consumers and developers.   Free to play done right is the best for all involved, I believe. It's still evolving as a business model, so may experience some changes in the near future. Quick cash-ins I'm not so much a fan of (read as: too many zombie games.)
